@Gompo.
Interesting. I didn't realize a Uyghur was the Director of National Energy Administration.
Convenience aside, do you really want China based Tencent reading your gmail?
Make sure to ask very clearly if you can get 90 days and not 60 days per stay. I suspect it will be arbitrary with a very strong tendency to issue 60 days. However, HK agents have connections, so sometimes they get things you can't get applying yourself. At 60 days per stay, it's better to opt for visa situation with a residence permit or move to Shenzhen or Xiamen.
I would definitely like to hear a story where someone got a 90 day per stay 10 year visa issued outside the USA. I'm still not sure if they can issue more than 60 days per for that 10 year even applying in the USA.
@bucko. My 7.5 years comment was that depending on how long one plans on staying in China, some systems that might cost more to run but less upfront would be ok.
Also, how does the Berkey compare to ceradyn or other ceramic silver filters?
@paulwind6. Why not just buy a flight to Laos or Myanmar and make use of it? As other posters pointed out, you won't be taking the train to Laos or crossing by bus into Myanmar.
No results found.
Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.
If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.
Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.
Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.
Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.
They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.
Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.
Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.
Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.

发布者Aren't we going to need a high speed boat, not train? 4ft to 12ft sea level rise on it's way. Alas, an underwater train stopping in a submerged Shanghai station could be awesome .
